Why do people have to talk about "the goverment" like its some out of control evil conglomerate that is bent on controlling us all? What you call "goverment intervention" is what is also known as "laws".

These "laws" are not arbitrarily handed down by some shadow authority, they are conceived by, and voted upon by, THE PEOPLE. That's right...these laws that you consider "intervention", are actually an extension of the will of the majority.

It would be nice if that were true, wouldn't it?

Instead of blaming the big bad govt for forcing businesses to not have racist hiring practices, consider what all has to happen for a law to go into effect. We the people run the government, not the other way around.

Also don't forget that "you cannot please all of the people, all of the time". So you and quite a few others may be violently against something, and have very valid reasons, but if ten thousand times your number think otherwise, yes it sucks for you and you are just out of luck.

I'd be very surprised if you could find ten thousand British people who agree with affirmative action. I wouldn't be surprised at all to find at least half the population - thirty million, say - who see it for the bullshit it is.

We do not live in a proper democracy here. The three major parties all support the nonsense that is affirmative action. Off the top of my head I can only think of one party who doesn't, and the three major parties conspire to make sure they never get elected.
